especiallyimportant due to potential pitfalls surrounding computational modeling. As Lingefjärd [13]documented, masters students building models in a computational environment would lend anunreasonable level of trust to the results of those models. In a sense, computing would ‘takeover’ and students would not engage in critical thinking to critique their own models.Lingefjärd’s studies “confirmed the essential role played by the validation part of mathematicalmodeling when technology is present.” Explicit instruction and practice in validation maycontribute to training students who exercise engineering judgment to wield and consumecomputational models critically.While explicit teaching of modeling is rare in undergraduate education, there does exist
